I don't know if I'd characterize it like that. There was no "rush" any more than the Fairlane Cobra or Cyclone CJ were rushed.
And, IMHO, it wasn't about deleting unnecessary options and weight as much as offering a certain performance benchmark at a particular price point. Sure, some options like buckets would be considered unnecessary to achieve that, but weight was not a factor in the creation of these cars. What's strange about the Chevys is that they came mandatory with mag wheels.
